August 1, 1981 Aunt Estelle wrote

Sat.  1981  Fair.  not so hot as usual

I washed & swept the floors.  I went, alone, to Norton, up the valley and down by Appa.


Footnote:    Norton is a town about 15 miles from her home.  They have a lot of department stores and businesses.  Appa is short for Appalachia, Virginia.  It is a coal mining town and is about 10 miles from her home.  It is between Big Stone Gap and Norton.    Guess no one wanted to make that journey with her.
